Check out this race and give me some feedback.

[inkpenavenger]

These are the mechanical traits for a race I'm working on. They are descended from inhabitants of the Far Realm, and I want them to be psychc-savvy and resistant. Also ideally suited for the Star Pact Warlock class. I'm just looking for some feedback. Do these features look balanced? Do I need something else? Any ideas for a racial power?

Abilities: +2 Constitution, +2 Intelligence
Size: Medium
Speed: 6 sq
Vision: Darkvision

Languages: Common, Deep Speech
Skill Bonuses: +2 Insight, +2 Perception
Abberant Origin
+5 on saves vs. charm effects
+2 Will Defense vs. Psychic keyword
Resist 5+half-level Psychic

Thanks!

So am I to take the complete lack of comments as "looks ok to me" ?

I like the concept! However, I'm not sure there's enough powers with the Charm keyword to justify making that a class feature. I might make it a class-only feat. Might be fun to have a 'psychic rebound' class power - once per encounter, upon taking psychic damage, the PC deals psychic damage equal half of the amount received back to the attacker?

I like that idea for a class power.

The other features I just lifted an modified from other races:

Eladrin get +5 to saves against charm
Halflings get +2 AC vs opportunity attacks
Tieflings get Reist Fire 5+half level

I thought about making it +5 to saves against Psychic keyword, but I want them to be hard to dominate...maybe I should just give them +5 against domination effects....

Thanks for the input.
